A pure solid sample of Substance X is put into an evacuated flask. The flask is heated at a steady rate and the temperature recorded as time passes. Here is a graph of the results: temperature (°C) 100. 80. Explanation 60. 40.- What is the boiling point of X ? Use this graph to answer the following questions: 10. Check 30. heat added (kJ/mol) C (check all that annly)
Thermochemistry
Thermochemistry can be considered as a branch of thermodynamics that deals with the connections between warmth, work, and various types of energy, formed because of different synthetic and actual cycles. Thermochemistry describes the energy changes that occur as a result of reactions or chemical changes in a substance.
Exergonic Reaction
The term exergonic is derived from the Greek word in which ‘ergon’ means work and exergonic means ‘work outside’. Exergonic reactions releases work energy. Exergonic reactions are different from exothermic reactions, the one that releases only heat energy during the course of the reaction. So, exothermic reaction is one type of exergonic reaction. Exergonic reaction releases work energy in different forms like heat, light or sound. For example, a glow stick releases light making that an exergonic reaction and not an exothermic reaction since no heat is released. Even endothermic reactions at very high temperature are exergonic.
By the Observation of graph , we see that there are two 2 straight lines in the graph. The below (Lower) straight line indicates that , Solid starts to melt and temperature remains constant during the melting .
The Above (upper) straight line indicates that , Liquid starts to boil and temperature remains constant during the boiling.
From this we get the idea about the boiling and melting line in the graph.
